孙玮

尽管孙玮（WeiChristianson）是亚洲投行界最有权势的人物之一，但她进入这一行却有一点儿偶然。

Though Wei Christianson is one of the most powerful figures in Asian investment banking , her entry into the industry was a bit of an accident .

今年，孙玮的中国投行团队为双汇国际（ShuanghuiInternational）以71亿美元成功收购美国最大猪肉制造商史密斯菲尔德食品公司（SmithfieldFoods）提供了咨询。这是中国集团对美国公司完成的规模最大的一宗收购案。

This year , Christianson 's China investment banking team advised Shuanghui International on its successful $ 7.1bn takeover of Smithfield Foods , America 's largest pork producer , the largest US acquisition by a Chinese group .

此人是香港市场监管机构——证券及期货事务监察委员会（SecuritiesandFuturesCommission）的一名高官，因为当时该机构已开始筹备第一批中国企业赴香港海外上市的工作，所以正在物色有孙玮那样技能的人加入其企业融资部。

The neighbour was a senior official at Hong Kong 's market regulator , the Securities and Futures Commission , which was preparing for the first overseas listings of Chinese companies in the then-British colony . The SFC was looking for someone with Christianson 's skills to join its corporate finance department .

孙玮曾在香港参加过一个派对，五年后她成为了一名银行家。

孙玮精通法律和证券业务，汉语和英语都很流利。

Christianson understood both the law and the securities business , and was fluent in Mandarin and English .

孙玮表示，对华并购活动减少，是由于外国公司在全球衰退中只求生存，加上许多中国内地公司不缺资金，或者不需要外资技术。

MS Christianson said inbound deals had fallen as foreign companies looked to survive the global downturn and many mainland companies did not want capital or outside expertise .
